English country garden
Lovely garden and amenities. Quiet place to stay. Watching the local wildlife was a joy. Only thing that I missed was reading lighting.

Stunning
The Granary was a perfect getaway. Really well equipped for cooking at home and a massive big bed and bedroom for when you return after a day exploring the area. Spacious and clean and lovely homemade food items and welcome pack. Very close to Canterbury, Dover, Folkestone. Would definitely recommend a visit to Dover castle! Unfortunately only met the host briefly the morning we were leaving as they had been away but everything was well communicated beforehand. Would 100% recommend a stay here for your holiday in Kent.

A delightful place to stay!
A really tranquil place to stay and a great base for exploring Kent. Robin and Hazel were the perfect hosts - welcoming and available if needed. The Granary is in their beautiful garden yet secluded. It has everything you need for a getaway - we’ve stayed four nights but wish we’d booked for longer.

Enchanted Stay
Incredible property in the most beautiful surroundings. Greeted by the owners who recommended things to do in the evening. Bungalow was immaculate with a well stocked fridge with essentials. The place was immaculate and clean. All toiletries included. But the surrounding were most beautiful. Sitting outside having a glass of wine and being at one with nature watching the wildlife and beautiful gardens. I would highly recommend this place to anyone. A very welcome retreat.

Fantastic host
Robin was so helpful and accommodating. I booked this property for my sister and her new husbands wedding night. I asked Robin to decorate and provide a few extra touches for them and he did a fantastic job. They had a wonderful stay, said the bed was huge and comfortable and loved their time at the Granary. Thank you also for the late check out. Would most definitely recommend. Thanks for everything Robin!!

Perfect escape
We spent two nights at The Granary as we explored SE Kent on a quick getaway. The cottage is beautiful, immaculately clean, and very well equipped. The hosts were friendly and accommodating, and our weekend was wonderful. This is a great place to serve as a base for exploring this part of the country...Canterbury, Dover, and Sandwich (just to name a few) are within an easy 25-30 minute drive.

Wonderful Holiday
This is a great place to spend a week's holiday in Kent. The Granery is in fact two buildings - the main building is the living area and the other building is the large bedroom. The bedroom is accessed via a small passage with 3 steps. On arrival we were greeted with the most comprehensive welcome pack. Everything from bread, butter, homemade jam and marmalade, fruit, milk, yogurts and tea, coffee and cereal and wine. The place was spotless and the bedroom had an enormous and comfortable bed and plenty of wardrobes. The village is in the high weald are of Kent and there is easy access to all the major English Heritage and National Trust site in Kent and East Sussex. Had a great holiday and would recommend The Granary to anyone wishing to spend time in this area.
